Looks good from what I see. I would compare it to pics you can find of a legit '69-S Doubled Die online, and spend a few bucks getting it verified. ANACS would be the cheapest for under $25.

 

Okay! Would someone mind posting the images of the valuable 1969-S Doubled Die so she can compare them?

Nope... Not at all
More like die deterioration doubling and/or Mechanical doubling but not Hub Doubling

Here is another true Doubled Die 1969 S

Thanks, guys!

Thank you for your reply and honesty.. The date looks exactly like the pics below, wish i could get better pics..

 

Not even close .
Take a look at the real DDO .


Now take a look at yours .

Your mint-mark placement doesn't match the real DDO .

 

Just the date is not enough. Take note of all the lettering. The doubling is very bold.

 

Does the S mint mark look doubled also?

 

No... The Mint Mark was not part of the Hub Process. It was added afterwards so it can't be Doubled.. only Repunched! (RPM)

 

I know that. I was asking the OP since the photo isn't clear enough. If he said it was also doubled I was going to tell him that was the reason why his coin isn't the DDO.

 

The mintmark on the good 69 S DDO sometimes comes doubled as well from MDD. So you can't say that if the mintmark is doubled it isn't a DDO.

 

Not the Doubled Die everyone
is looking for.

It's very rare for a reason.
